The revival meetings at Milroy Baptist church closed Tuesday evening. Rev. Bair of the First Baptist church did most of the preaching and effectually sang a number of solos. The meetings were of great profit to the church and a good number of substantial members were received into the church. Dr. Rose M. Rem mek, optical specialist, will make her next regular visit to Clarke’s Jewelry store, Sept. 26-30. The eye is a delicate organ. Correcting its defects should be done by one having full knowledge of its anatomy and diseases, a thorough college and clinical training and extended practice. Fraser Thomas and Abram Burkhalter, two prominent Carroll county farmers, and M. M. Murphy, druggist, James Shirk, banker, and Victor Ricketts of the Delphi Journal met with an automobile accident Thursday morning near Monticello in which the four former gentlemen were quite badly injured. Shirk lost control of the machine and it ran into a deep ditch, throwing the occupants out with great violence. AU will recover. The machine was wrecked and banker Shirk says his auto days are over. J. P. Sherman, of Chicago, was here the first of the week and got an order from the court giving him the custody of the two children that were formerly given to Mrs. Sherman when her divorce was granted here a few years ago. Mrs. Sherman has since married a Georgian by the name of Herbert Askew. The girl Mabel was staying with a sister of Mr. Sherman’s in Chicago, and last Friday some woman called at the house and Mabel left with her. Since then Mr. Sherman has been trying to find the child, and, of course, as usual, has made a great hullaballoo about it. The Chicago papers have published pictures of the girl and her mother, who it is supposed came up from Georgia and took the girl home with her.
